085 The successful restoration of the Dian Kingdom, Lugong's last wish
After returning to the ship, he immediately set sail back to Shouchun.
That night, everyone accompanied Tengyi, who had taken revenge, to get drunk, and the next day they slept all day before they woke up one after another. Strive against the stream. The boat slowed down. It took one more day than when I came, and I arrived in Shouchun.
Li Liang promised Mrs. Zhuang to spend a few days to see her when she passed through the Dian Kingdom, so he did not stop and went straight to Chengyang.
After landing on the shore, they joined up with the elite army waiting for them and headed south to the Dian Kingdom.
At this time, Lou Wuxin, who accompanied Mrs. Zhuang's mother and son back to Yunnan was the newly appointed general, leading 8,000 Chu soldiers to recover most of the places occupied by the rebels. The Yunnan people knew that Zhuang Baoyi came back, and they revolted one after another, forming a new Dian army, a group of 20,000 people, and the Chu army surrounded the Yunnan capital Gaoze.
Gaoze is located on the plateau, built according to the situation behind the mountain, the shape is dangerous, and the water source and food are sufficient, and the coalition army has lost thousands of people for a while.
When the vassal states saw the new funeral of King Yelang, they sent troops one after another, and King Lan led the people to attack the capital of Yelang and set up a new lord, only to return triumphantly, and the Yelang people were no longer able to bully their neighbors.
When Li Liang and the others arrived at the coalition camp in Gaoze, the besieging army had just suffered a defeat and suffered casualties.
Lou Wuxin and Mrs. Zhuang knew that Li Liang was coming as promised, and they were overjoyed and welcomed everyone into the camp.
Lou had no intention of setting up a banquet to wash the dust for everyone, so he refused to Li Liang politely, and immediately held a meeting in the main tent to study the method of breaking the city.
After listening to Lou Wuxin's detailed description of the shape and environment of Gao Ze City, Li Liang said indifferently: "The most powerful part of this city is the risk of backing the mountain, so we will start from this place and ensure that the city can be broken in three days." Because there is no mountain in the world that cannot be climbed. β
Mrs. Zhuang, Lou Wuxin and other generals were all stunned.
That night, Li Liang and the others marched all night and came to the back of the big stone mountain on which Gao Zecheng was backed. Set up camp.
By the early morning of the next day, Li Liang and Teng Yi had studied the mountain situation and drew up five routes. Send someone to climb up to set up a fixed iron ring and arrange the climbing rope.
These are the basic and well-trained items of the elite regiment, and by the time it gets dark, Tengyi and the others have used climbing ropes and pedals embedded in the stone wall to quickly reach the top of the undulating, overgrown mountain.
I saw Gaoze City, which was seven or eight miles wide. Stretch out beneath your feet.
Lou Wuxin, on the other hand, was commanding a large army, attacking the city day and night, in order to distract the attention of the rebels.
The sound of shouts and arrows breaking through the air. And so on.
Li Liang also climbed up at this time and stood beside Teng Yi.
It is a distance of 70 zhang from below. It is indeed shocking for ordinary people to look at, but for the elite soldiers who have always used the Moon Worship Mountain, which is three times higher than this one, near the Wujia Ranch, as a training ground. This rocky mountain is truly the pinnacle of pediatrics.
Teng Yi gave an order. Jing Shan, Wu Shu, Wu Yan and Dan Quan, who were particularly skilled, immediately fell down from the hanging rope. Once you've found your foothold, set up a nail ring to set up a new climbing rope.
Their equipment is designed by modern extreme climbing experts, leaning against the ferrule around the waist, sliding down as fast as lightning, as easy as playing a game.
The four of them arrived in the grass at the foot of the mountain. It is separated from the back wall of the south of the castle by only a moat.
The guards on the walls all went to the other three walls to help, and only a few watchtowers were guarded. But I couldn't see the darkness under the light.
Teng Yi gave the order again, and the elite soldiers of the Wu family trained according to their usual training, taking advantage of the shelter of the small trees on the cliff and the cover of the night, and slid down in batches, at this time, Jing Shan and the other four put on the water support, crossed the moat, and set up a rope across the river.
Li Liang stared at the soldiers and civilians who were busy like ants in the city and said, "Just looking at this situation, we know that it is only a regime maintained by force, and the inhabitants are all laborers who are forced to carry by whips. β
Everyone took a closer look, and it was exactly as Li Liang pointed out. The people of the city were only forced to take on all kinds of tasks of defending the city under the supervision and whipping, and they were helpless.
At this time, a group of people rode horses to patrol from the other end, carrying wind lanterns to shine under the city and the mountain behind.
Everyone was startled and hid, and the four of Jing Shan crouched at the foot of the wall, most worried about the four long ropes across the river, as long as the other party was a little careful, they would definitely be able to find out.
Although the rope is painted with black oil that does not reflect light, it is not an invisible thing.
Li Liangren was in a hurry, and when the lights of the group of people were about to incorporate the rope into the light, he pursed his lips and let out a sharp night owl cry.
Naturally, those people raised their lamps and shone on the back mountain, and when they found nothing, they had already crossed the rope and searched for it.
Jing Shan and the others shot out the fishing rope, hung it on the head of the city, and quickly climbed up, as agile as a monkey, and dived to solve the guards in the sentry tower.
The Wujia soldiers crossed the river and climbed the city in batches, their movements were agile, crisp and neat, and they showed amazing efficiency.
Li Liang was overwhelmed by the emotion, even if it was a modern special forces, it was no more than such a level.
Pulling arrows from his bow, dozens of arrows flew out quickly, killing a small group of guards guarding the city in an instant. Open the way for the Wu warriors to move forward, and help them occupy the city defenses more quickly and enter the city.
At this time, nearly 1,000 people fell to the foot of the mountain, and those who reached the city took out their crossbow arrows. Hold all strategic positions on the city walls.
Teng Yi chuckled and said, "Little brother's hands are itchy, you have to take the first step." β
Li Liang said: "Let's go down together!" β
When Li Liang and the others arrived at the head of the wall, the elite of the more than 1,000 Wu families were divided into four groups, preparing to divide the left and right sides along the city wall to kill and attack the city.
Tengyi fires a signal rocket, informing the besieging Lou Wuxin that they have successfully entered the city.
After Li Liang sent people to guard the various intersections of the city, he led five hundred soldiers to the city.
Teng Yi was in charge of occupying the wall.
The trumpet sounded.
All the warriors shouted in unison: "The city is broken, the city is broken!" β
When the soldiers and civilians in the city were stunned together, the sound of killing shook the sky, and they saw that the big banner of the word "Zhuang" was planted high at the back city wall, and hundreds of soldiers flew from the city to kill like a general.
The forced citizens shouted in unison, leaving behind the rolling wood and stones they were carrying, and fled in all directions, shouting: "The city is broken, the city is broken!" "Chaos spreads like a plague.
Li Liang and the others poured down from the cascades of the city wall, and crossbow arrows flew like rain. The enemy soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and in the blink of an eye, they took control of the square of the rear city gate and the nearby buildings.
Li Liang ordered his men to open the city gate and lower the drawbridge, and at the same time ordered his men to occupy the roof. Defend and hold on.
The enemies who rushed forward shot back.
But their own people poured into the city from the city gates, and they also sent in heavy weapons such as spears and high shields.
Teng Yi and others took advantage of the enemy's chaos to capture the small half of the city walls in the northwest.
Lou Wuxin's siege team attacked the east gate with all its might, pinning down the enemy's main force there.
The troops who occupied the northwest wall of the city condescended, and with strong bows and arrows, they swept away the enemies who were running and intercepting below the city. Li Liang saw that the time had come. Wave your arms and give orders.
Rows of Wujia soldiers, under the cover of strong arrows, held spears and halberds to the east, west, and north gates. The battle was terrible and tragic.
The Wu warriors on the wall shouted again: "Those who abandon their weapons and squat on the ground will not be killed." Those who abandon weapons and squat on the ground will not be killed! "Repeatedly, this is a clever plan that has been conceived with reference to modern psychological warfare, and it works well here.
Many of the houses were burned, and flames rose from the rooftops. And then spread out to the quadripartite houses. The whole city was bathed in firelight, and the sky was covered with wolf smoke, and the stars and moon were immediately darkened.
The defenders abandoned their armor one after another. Squatting with the city citizens in groups between the corners of the city or the thoroughfare of the square, the morale is completely lost.
The city has become a chaotic situation, and the Wujia soldiers have formed a well-organized battle formation, constantly expanding the scope of occupation.
The warriors on the city walls continued to advance, killing the recalcitrant ones with rivers of blood and corpses lying on the wall.
The injured were swiftly returned to the South Wall. Treated by a special person, a qiΔ orderly.
This is the first time that this elite army of the Ukrainian family has tried their skills in a large-scale war. The result is extraordinary.
Under the leadership of a group of shield men and archers, Li Liang led the twenty-four iron guards and successfully broke into the inner city.
The enemy soldiers guarding the inner city resisted hard, Li Liang and others pounced, rushed left and right, and broke through the defense of the inner city gate in a short time, and killed towards the palace.
Knowing that the general situation was gone, the enemy soldiers abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
Li Liang sent the troops together to take care of them. Lou Wuxin and Zhuang Kong have led thousands of elite soldiers to rush in, and after the two groups of people and horses converged, they were even more powerful, and they attacked the palace in less than a hot tea.
The palace was in chaos, the cry shook the sky, the women and children of the palace were huddled, trembling and begging for mercy, and the guards knelt down and surrendered.
Li Liang felt pity in his heart, and asked people to appease and take care of them.
"Bang!"
The door of the main hall was slammed open, and I saw a group of more than 30 enemy soldiers, a young man wearing a royal robe and a high crown on his head among the sword-raising group protectors, and the atmosphere was poignant and intense.
The shouting and fighting outside gradually subsided, indicating that Gaoze City had fallen into the hands of the besieging army.
Li Liang and the others lined up in front of this group of people, and dozens of crossbow arrows pointed directly at the enemy formation in the center of the temple.
Zhuang Kong shouted: "Surrender immediately, otherwise there will be no mercy!" β
Lou Wuxin leaned over to Li Liang's ear and said: "This son has done a lot of evil, he has raped countless women, and it is not a pity to die." β
The young man in Wang Fu raised his head and shouted: "I am Li Qi, the son of Li Ling, and I would rather die than surrender!" β
Li Liangzhilou had no intention of testing the meaning of being in charge of himself, shook his head and said, "You will preside over this place!" β
Turning around and walking out of the hall, there was a dense sound of arrows breaking through the air and screams from behind, and then gradually fell silent.
Three days after the recovery of Gaoze, Li Liang said goodbye to Mrs. Zhuang's mother and son, and the You sisters and others. Rush back to Xianyang.
This time in Chu can be said to be a complete harvest, not only successfully killed Tian Dan, but also cleaned up the internal affairs of Chu and helped Mrs. Zhuang to restore the Dian State. However, due to the uncertainty of Xu Xian's life and death, Prince Dan was trapped in Xianyang, so the atmosphere of everyone's triumphant return was greatly weakened.
When entering the customs, the old friend An Guxi personally welcomed them into the customs.
Li Liang saw that the Qin soldiers had white yarn wrapped around their arms, and he knew that something was wrong.
Sure enough, An Gu Xi said miserably: "Xu was seriously injured in the attack, and died on the way before he arrived in Xianyang." β
Li Liang felt that this fate was really out of control, and that Lu Buwei was indeed more vicious than a jackal, for his own selfish interests, he completely disregarded the overall situation of the Qin State, and eliminated everything that hindered him by any means.
He and he had no grievances, but just because King Zhuang Xiang, Zhu Ji and Yingzheng were close to him, they wanted to kill themselves.
Now he uses despicable means to put Xu before death, which makes people hate it even more.
An Gu sighed: "This matter has been confirmed to be committed by Chun Shenjun, although the Chu people sent Chun Shenjun's head. He also promised to cede five counties for peace, but will we stop there? β
Li Liang rode with him and said sadly: "If that's the case." It was right in Lu Buwei's trick. Now he wants to take advantage of the state crisis to expand his power. The real murderer who killed Xu Xiang was Lu Buwei, and Chun Shenjun was just a puppet who was pulled by him! β
An Gu Xi changed his color: "What? β
β¦β¦
The next day, Li Liang immediately set off and rushed back to Xianyang.
At this time, it had just passed the beginning of winter for three days, and the climate was very cold. Before they knew it, they had been away from Xian-Yangzu for five months.
Eighteen days later. Xian-Yang finally appeared in front of him.
The elite regiment returned to the original Wujia ranch under Yingzheng on its own, while Li Liang returned to Xianyangcheng with Teng Yi and the twenty-four iron guards who were physically tired.
When I entered the city, I heard another unfortunate news: Lu Gong fell ill.
This disease comes out of the air.
Xu Xian's body was transported back to Xianyang. Lu Gong cried wildly at the corpse, fell ill on the spot, and has been ill since then.
A wave of flat and flat rose again.
Li Liang and the others hurried to the General's Mansion.
Stepping into the door of the house, people feel inappropriate.
The palace was crowded with generals and ministers such as Wang Ling and the relatives of Lugong. Bursts of crying.
Li Liang thought that Lu Gong had gone. Wang Ling pulled Li Liang into the inner hall and said sadly: "Let's go and see the general for the last time." He keeps thinking about you and refuses to take his last breath. β
Li Liang exhaled, hoping that it was still too late, if he couldn't cure Lu Gong with his peerless medical skills......
It's got to be a handful! Now it's a race against time.
Suddenly, he realized that he had in fact not only regarded Lugong as a respectable friend and elder. In his heart, he also regarded him as a relative, and he had a kind of affection and attachment to his father as a son.
The deer was lying on the couch, his face as pale as paper. His eyes were closed, and he was breathing with difficulty.
Ying Zheng stood beside the couch. Holding his hand tightly, his expression was surprisingly solemn.
Lu Dan'er knelt on the other side of the couch, crying diligently, and the two noblewomen who seemed to be her elders were taking care of her.
Jing Jun, Chang Wenjun, Chang Pingjun, LΓΌ Buwei, Guan Zhongxie, Li Si, Miao Poison and others all came and stayed outside the door.
When everyone saw Li Liang, they all showed a look of joy.
Lu Buwei also put on a happy face, put his arm around Li Liang's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "It's good that the national teacher is back, let's go in and see the general for the last time." β
Li Liang looked at Lu Buwei indifferently.
The essence in Lu Buwei's eyes flashed and let go of him.
Jing Jun pounced, grabbed his eyebrows, and called "Brother Li", and couldn't help crying bitterly, and the listener was sad.
Ying Zhenglong's body was shocked, don't look over, when he saw Li Liang, his eyes shot deep emotion, but his demeanor was surprisingly calm, and he only said slowly: "Taifu come in!" β
The deer on the couch woke up with an "ah" sound.
Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "Fu Dan'er girl go out!" β
When Lu Dan'er stood up to protest. As soon as his legs went limp, he fainted in the arms of the two women, and Jing Jun hurriedly rushed over and hugged her out.
Li Liang came to the couch, and at this time only Ying Zheng and Li Liang were left in the room, and because Ying Zheng did not have an order, no one else dared to come in. Lu Buwei, the only one who dared to break in under this circumstance, had a ghost in his heart and chose to stay outside the room.
Lu Gong opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes swept over the two of them, his face showed a flush, and he struggled to sit up.
Li Liang and Ying Zheng glanced at each other, knowing that he was reflected because he saw Li Liang, and his life could not be saved.
Li Liang took out the golden needles and century-old ginseng slices in his waist bag, and quickly used this bit of vitality of Lu Gong to renew his life.
The two helped him to sit up.
Tears fell from the corners of Lu Gong's eyes, and he said in a dumb voice: "Was Xu Xian killed by that traitor?" β
Li Liang nodded, with tears in his eyes, but he couldn't help it, and said to him: "Everything has me, don't worry, the most important thing now is to calm down, otherwise ......"
Lu Gong shook his head suddenly, grabbed the hands of the two of them excitedly, and said in the ears of the two of them in a trembling voice: "Bao Chujun, kill the traitor, avenge me and Xu Xian, remember, remember!" Then he took his last breath and went home.
Li Liang only then appreciated the impermanence of the trajectory of fate, and he still had a good hope of saving Lu Gong with this treatment, but Lu Gong's inner will was so strong that he actually broke through his "faint needle" effect, and also consumed the last bit of vitality.
Li Liang couldn't help but pound the bed fiercely, turned to look at Ying Zheng, and said dejectedly: "This fate is really impermanent, Lu Gong has accumulated too much resentment in his heart, and there is no medicine and stone." He muttered, "What's the use of peerless medical skills?" β
"Hidden Mission: Assist the Dian Kingdom in its restoration, success. Harvest 100,000 causal energy ......"
"Hidden Mission: Lu Gong's Last Wish - Protect the Prince and Kill the Traitor. Successfully harvested the two world protagonists (positive) identities of Lu Gong and Xu Xian. β
Li Liang had no other feelings than a wry smile. (To be continued......)
